Matches Are So 2000: Mag Fire Metallic Firestarter

June 11th, 2009 by: Lambert Varias


Put an end to the frustration of lighting up your grill or starting a bonfire with the Mag Fire firestarter. It’s capable of producing white-hot 3000ºC (5500ºF) sparks, even in humid, stormy or freezing conditions. You can even use it as a flare of sorts to call for help.

This is something that all Swiss army knives should have. You can buy a Mag Fire at Gadgetshop for £9 (approx. $15 USD); each unit is good for up to 3000 strikes. Definitely something to be kept out of children’s reach.
